In the ever-evolving electronic music landscape, Kevin de Vries stands out as a luminary, crafting melodic techno masterpieces that echo through clubs and festivals worldwide. With a unique talent for melding musical intricacies, he has carved out a prominent place in the industry.

Kevin utilises the mesmerising and often transcendent potency of loops to captivate the dance floor. His close affiliation with Afterlife, where he has been a core artist since 2018, has provided a key platform to showcase his creative talent. Since his first release, Kevin has been part of the brand’s story, one which has unfolded to encompass a vast global community and a progressive ethos based on connection. Cuts such as ‘Dance With Me’ and ‘Metro’ have showcased his production abilities and distinctive style.

Kevin’s relationship with the label and event series also inspired the progression of his musical approach. The connection to his audience is the driving force behind his constant evolution. On stage, Kevin is a natural performer, matching the vibrancy of his music with his stage presence. Whether at larger scale productions, or more intimate settings, his aim is to form a symbiotic relationship with the audience - a mutual energy exchange that inspires Kevin, and the dance floor simultaneously.

Elsewhere, Kevin has released with Drumcode, Experts Only and Cocoon. With each release, he injects emotionally charged energy, combined with mesmerising beats and rhythmic arrangements. 

His unique sound has been featured in some of the most notable clubs, including Brooklyn Mirage NYC, Space Miami, and Hï Ibiza, as well as at world renowned festivals like Coachella, EDC Las Vegas, Tomorrowland, Awakenings, and Time Warp.

Kevin’s vision for the future upholds his community focused ethos - to connect with as many people as possible through his music, to keep finding new ways to communicate his message and, ultimately, to stay true to himself.

Kalmer is an electronic music producer and DJ from London. Kalmer’s journey began when all 4 tracks from his debut ‘Forever Dreamer’ EP broke into the top 100 of acclaimed dance music charts.

Where words fail, music speaks. This is the ethos that goes behind every one of Kalmer's emotively thought-provoking productions.

Not showing any signs of slowing down, just a month after his debut release he followed up with 2 tracks on Berlin imprint Steyoyoke that again reached Beatport's top 100 rankings and provided a sure sign of a very bright future. Kalmer’s third EP ‘In Pursuit’ came on globally esteemed Nora En Pure's Purified Records, with a stunning 3 track voyage proving his craft alongside the most respected names in modern dance music yet again.

Previously known as Ambian, Kalmer had built up a portfolio of extensive shows and awards when winning the Pioneer DJ Accelerator programme in 2018. This granted him many opportunities such as his Pioneer DJ Sounds Show live stream at Amsterdam Dance Event (ADE) and a DJ MAG live stream at Workbar, London. Notable shows include IMS Ibiza, E1 London, and performance at DJ MAG Best Of British 2018 alongside the highest-ranking UK artists giving him a firm stamp of approval as a future talent.

With nothing but years of inspiration, Kalmer now deviates into an alternate path that will see him consumed by all things analog with a newfound dedication to hardware and a desire to add an aspect of human integration within his music. Using a mainly all-analog approach with his productions and live sets alike, Kalmer can be found manipulating revered equipment to project his borderless approach to techno and melody with an ability to seamlessly voyage through dark, light, futurism, and nostalgia.

As the techno scene continues to flourish further, expect a lot of movement from Kalmer with a pipeline full of releases for some of the largest imprints out there paired alongside his melodic techno event and record label - Reborn, which has already seen him share stages with Afterlife and Innervisions favourites such as Stephan Jolk, Denis Horvat, Colyn, Erly Tepshi and many, many more.

Tomek is the melodic and progressive house project of Hungarian-born producer Tamás Bolye.
Blending emotional melodies with deep grooves, his sound draws inspiration from trance and classic progressive house. What started as a DJ journey gradually evolved into music production around 2009, driven by a passion for atmosphere-rich, genre-blending compositions.

His debut EP "In Your Memory" was released in 2013 on Stellar Fountain Records, marking a key milestone in his creative path. Since then, Tomek's music has been released by several respected labels and supported by renowned artists such as Hernán Cattáneo, Nick Warren, Ruben Karapetyan, Forty Cats, Paul Thomas and Fernando Ferreyra.

Known for his experimental edge and emotional depth, Tomek continues to explore new sonic territories — always staying true to the sound that shaped him.

But music will say more than many nice words.
So... just listen... :)

Mathew Jonson is a phenomenon in electronic music. For nearly 40 years he has forged a sound instantly recognisable on the dance floor – often copied but impossible to imitate. Raw, analogue, and alive, he is a master of real-time performance who shapes drum machines and synthesisers into unforgettable journeys, making every show a one-off experience. From underground clubs to sold-out concert halls and collaborations with orchestras, Jonson’s name guarantees a performance of rare intensity and musicality.

His career took off in the early 2000s with influential releases on Perlon, Kompakt, M_nus, Cocoon, and ITISWHATITIS Recordings, a label where he released his very first record in 2001 and which he later acquired. Anthems like "Marionette" and "Decompression" established him as a producer of rare vision, while his live sets quickly became must-see events, consistently ranked among Resident Advisor’s top acts. During this period he was voted Best International Producer twice in Germany’s Groove Magazine, a testament to his impact on the European techno landscape, and went on to appear on the covers of DJ Mag, Groove, Synmag, and other leading publications. Unlike many, Jonson avoids the use of samples for melodic content, instead writing, performing, mixing and producing everything himself – even contributing his own voice and percussion – giving his music a depth and identity that is entirely his own.

Jonson’s discography spans era-defining singles and albums across labels like Crosstown Rebels and Fabric, where his "Fabric 84" mix captured the spirit of his live sets with unreleased edits and classics performed in real time. His two solo studio albums, "Agents Of Time" (2010, Wagon Repair) and "Her Blurry Pictures" (2013, Crosstown Rebels), expanded his scope even further – balancing intricate dance floor energy with explorations of deeper, more introspective sounds. He is currently working on his third studio album, a collaborative project featuring many artists living in Lisbon, where he now resides. His remix work is equally renowned, covering a wide spectrum of electronic music’s most influential figures. He has reimagined The Chemical Brothers ("Believe", "The Boxer"), Moby ("Slipping Away"), Cybotron ("Clear"), Kevin Saunderson ("Good Life"), Plastikman ("Plastique"), VCMG – Vince Clarke & Martin Gore ("Single Blip"), Goldie ("Redemption"), Josh Wink ("Higher State of Consciousness"), The Martinez Brothers ("No Pop"), Rone ("Nouveau Monde"), Joseph Capriati ("Love Changed Me"), Stephan Bodzin ("Tron"), and Alan Fitzpatrick ("Something Wonderful"), as well as crossover work with Nelly Furtado. These remixes underline his rare ability to bridge underground innovation with mainstream resonance.

He has also expanded beyond the club and festival circuit, collaborating with the Zurich Tonhalle Orchestra and performing a sold-out show at the Berlin Philharmonie with Cobblestone Jazz. With that group, Jonson recorded two albums for the iconic !K7 label, further cementing their reputation as one of electronic music’s most respected live acts. Another landmark moment came with "Cinemix": a world premiere performance of a newly composed soundtrack for the silent film "Faust", created live by Jonson alongside Tyger Dhula, Danuel Tate, and Hrdvsion.

Beyond performance, Jonson has continued to innovate. In 2019 he launched Freedom Engine and its debut album "A Box Full Of Magic", followed by the creation of the Freedom Engine Academy – an educational platform built with handpicked mentors to pass on knowledge and foster collaboration. Now preparing to launch its 5th annual edition in 2026, the Academy has become a vital space for nurturing the next generation of electronic musicians.

Now, 25 years since his debut "New Identity" and nearly 40 years since first making electronic music, Jonson is preparing to celebrate a milestone anniversary in his career. Represented in Europe by LittleBig, his current projects include Freedom Engine, his collaboration with Âme, and his ongoing solo work as Mathew Jonson. A pioneer, a mentor, and an artist in constant motion, Mathew Jonson continues to shape the future of electronic music with every performance and release.
